For nearly two decades, Marvin Haynes sat behind bars for a murder he insisted he never committed. Now, after his life sentence was overturned, he is suing Minneapolis and five officers for fabricating evidence that led to his wrongful conviction.
Back in 2004, Haynes, now 37, was charged and later convicted of killing Randy Sherer at a Minneapolis flower shop despite his repeated claims that he was never there. He was just 16 years old at the time of the murder.
